@garym6942.bsky.socialUniversity of Alberta research: Millions of years ago, a dinosaur dropped dead near Drumheller. Cause of death unknown. Its death was insignificant; until now. edmontonjournal.com/news/alberta... #palaeontology #science #UAlberta #AbSci #Science #SciChat
@fedifind.bsky.socialNew research reveals 20,000-pound mosasaurs used stealth ambush tactics to dominate Cretaceous seas - apex ocean predators of the dinosaur age. https://www.popsci.com/science/mosasaur-dinosaurs-ambush-attacks/ #science #palaeontology #prehistoric
@fediboard-science.bsky.socialT. rex ruled the land. These Cretaceous Era apex predators had the sea. The post 20,000-pound mosasaurs ambushed prey with sneak attacks appeared first on Popular Science .
@royalsocietypublishing.orgResearchers have discovered a new species of extinct #crocodile from Egypt, sharing more than just its home with the Great Sphinx. Read the full #RSOS paper: doi.org/10.1098/rsos... #palaeontology @palaeoburke.bsky.social
@geolsocnorfolk.bsky.socialTwo million years ago, the North Sea lapped over much land where East Anglia now lies. It left sandy, gravelly, fossilly sediments of the Norwich Crag Formation.
Some lovely fossils have been found in the Waveney valley.

@garym6942.bsky.socialA remarkable fossil discovery from Alberta provides the first evidence that ‘raptors’—members of the dinosaur group known as dromaeosaurs—fed on a tyrannosaur. royaltyrrellmuseum.wpcomstaging.com/2026/10/07/f... via

@royalsocietypublishing.orgThis paper from #ProcB reveals a giant new Jurassic hunter, Sinojapyx giganteus, discovered in 165-million-year-old Chinese fossils. The find fills a critical gap in dipluran evolution and sheds light on ancient soil ecosystems doi.org/10.1098/rspb... | #Evolution #Palaeontology
@harriedrage.bsky.socialA reminder that there is one week left to apply to my open PhD position analysing the palaeoecologies of early arthropods at the University of Geneva!

@garym6942.bsky.socialFor centuries, scientists have asked a deceptively simple question: when did animals first appear? The fossil record gives one answer. Chemistry whispers another. dailygalaxy.com/2026/10/perf... #palaeontology #chemistry #fossils #Science #SciChat
@garym6942.bsky.socialA prehistoric cold case near Drumheller reveals either a small-time raptor scavenged on an apex predator, or a baby Albertosaurus engaged in a shocking act of cannibalism. www.ualberta.ca/en/folio/202... #AbSci #UAlberta #palaeontology #science #SciChat
@garym6942.bsky.socialThe croc family tree may be getting a new branch. Palaeontologists newly identified a crocodilian species that once roamed a shallow sea in what’s now Egypt about 45 million years ago. ctvnews.ca/sci-tech/art... #palaeontology #history #biology #science #SciChat
@aussienews.bsky.socialScientists have found the earliest-known fossil of a mammal-like animal that lived more than 160 million years ago in the mid-Jurassic period and may have hunted fish and salamander. #fossils #palaeontology #science #technology #mammals #evolution
